The "lowest price" you saw is probably not going to be the sale price.
From what I know, that price is only used when merchandise is returned. For example, if a 50H81 is returned, the clerk should look up the price, see the $2199 and take off a pre-determined percentage to sell the TV as "Open...
Ok, I checked inventory of the warehouses tonight.
As of about 5pm EST, ALL Best Buy warehouses had received a shipment of 50H81s with the exception of the warehouses in Cleveland, Houston, and San Francisco.
As long as your local store does not use these warehouses, you should be able to...
The 50H81s are trickling into Best Buy warehouses right now. When I checked last night, about 4 out of around 15-20 warehouses had received their shipment. Only 3 have been sold so far and those were "pre-orders" done weeks ago.

I was a little confused by the 50H81 sightings as well.
Recently, I checked up on the status of the sets as Best Buy. Still no warehouse has a single one in stock. Even though some are saying that the store they went to would not let them place an order because the 50H81 was not available at...

They are Best Buy's regular prices for the sets. But, of course, you should be able to get them a little cheaper when they run various sales each week.
Regular prices are as follows:42H81 - $229950H81 - $249957H81 - $2999
The 50H81 should be available first, the 57H81 sometime in August, and the 42H81 not until September-ish. They still have a lot of 40H80s.

By the way, here are the SKUs for the other models as well:
42H81 - 417199750H81 - 417200457H81 - 4172013
They can look this up by model number, but I thought this might save some time since, you know, all Best Buy employees are like, dumb and stuff.
And I think most people know this, but a...
The warehouses still have nothing, and when you try to place an order in the system it tells you that it is on "Backorder" (which just means the warehouse the store has to order from does not have it in stock).
Actually, you could go ahead and buy the thing at your local Best Buy, and you would...
